Recombinant Antibody
Specificity
This antibody binds thiacloprid, which is a neonicotinoid insecticide. It is used in the production of a lot of agricultural crops and acts by affecting the insects nervous system. The antibody is also reported to have some cross reactivity with imidaclothiz and acetamiprid, slight cross reactivity with 2- chloro-5-[[2-(nitromethy-l-ene)-1-imidazolidinyl] methyl] pyridine (6-Cl-PMNI) and the thiacloprid amide (around 2%), and no obvious cross reactivity (<2%) with other structural analogues.
Alternative Names
THD; neonicotinoid; pesticide; insecticide; CAS no: 111988-49-9; ChEBI: 391756; {(2Z)-3-[(6-Chloropyridin-3-yl)methyl]-1 3-thiazolidin-2-ylidene}cyanamide
UniProt
Immunogen
The original antibody was generated by immunizing 6 weeks old BALB/c mice with a thiacloprid–bull serum albumin (BSA) conjugate.
Application Notes
This antibody is recommended for detected of thiacloprid and other neonicotinoid pesticides. The binding characterization of this antibody to thiacloprid was done using ELISA. The recombinant antibody showed a binding profile similar to that of the original parental antibody. The reactivity of this antibody to other neonicotinoid pesticides was also determined using surface plasmon resonance. It was observed that thiacloprid and imidaclothiz displayed high binding responses, while imidacloprid, acetamiprid, and clothianidin showed medium binding responses. No significant binding was found toward dinotefuran, nitenpyram, and thiamethoxam, similar to the negative controls of two organophosphorus pesticides. (PMID: 32962080).
